The point is that you should ask your question on that thread, not whether it is already answered. This serves to keep similar topics organized under a smaller number of threads and prevents duplication of effort.

Thank you TTJ. I have searched the forum before posting my question. That post was discussing my question indirectly. As such the answers were not sufficient. That's why I couldnt find an answer between the lines.

Thank you though for pointing that out. I am looking for a more clarification here if possible. If not, then that's ok too.

Rumors imply speculations about 'uncertain' truth. If I was asking about certain event, I might have tried your crystal ball. But I am not. I thought Nikon's rumor forum a perfect place to ask my question about possible 'uncertain' coming event! and that's why I posted my question here!

Btw, sometimes silence is gold! Or as someone has once said: (check out your crystal ball to know who)

“You should try not to talk so much, my friend. You'll sound far less stupid that way."

I've been on the look out for a d600 for few weeks now. But thought since Christmas is around the corner, might as well wait. So my question, any rumors (or facts!) about the price of d600 going down a bit for Christmas??

I am in Australia, and the cheapest (brand new with Australia-based warranty) is about $1900! But regardless of any exact figure, do prices for Nikon usually drop during Christmas?

@jonny: unfortunately not :( it got stolen with my tokie 11-16 so it'll take me a while to save up again and i'm paying for school so it'll take even longer. one day i'll get the tokie again, it's an amazing lens!

@regulator: LOL! hahaha, i'm just so darn excited that i have a camera again! wasn't planning on buying a camera until i saw the discounts b&h were offering, which were too good to pass!

Thanks jonnyapple and adamz, I shot this event to see how my 70-300VR would do indoors at ISO 3200 on my D90. The lighting was horrible to shoot in and I had to do a lot of editing, so this was the ultimate test. If I had been closer the camera and lens would of worked quite well. I was probably 150-200 feet away when taking my pictures from the stands.

When I tried to denoise the picture it literally blurred the pixels. So I just removed the shadows and it saved my shots. I used Topaz Adjust4/ShadowRecovery for that and all other editing was done with Nikon Picture Project because I had a lot of pictures to edit.
